Radwan, 27, leaves Newcastle Falcons after racking up over 100 appearances and an eye-watering 45 tries in the Gallagher Premiership, earning a reputation as one of the league's deadliest finishers.

The speedster made his England debut during the summer of 2021, scoring a hat-trick against Canada at Twickenham, and has two international caps to his name.

Cheika's Verdict
Leicester Tigers Head Coach Michael Cheika couldn't hide his excitement about the addition of Radwan, saying:
“Adam is an exciting player, with a proven record for finding the try line and someone who will add great competition to our back three ranks as well as bring with him a wealth of experience.”

Cheika added: “He's a great young bloke, who we are excited to have link up with us this week and getting him on to the training field alongside his new club mates.”
